| Comment | It’s National Rail conditions of travel, to stop tickets being used in a manner they are not intended for like in the case of the OP.
By purchasing a ticket you are agreeing to their terms and conditions.
Like I said if the OP didn’t say anything and put someone trying to do their job in such a position, nobody would know otherwise.
5. Transfer of Tickets
5.1 A Ticket may be transferred by the person who bought that Ticket to another person, but only if:
5.1.1 the Ticket has not been made out in the passenger's name (which includes where the passenger is identified by a designated Railcard, photocard or other identifying means); and
5.1.2 the journey has not begun (for example, if you intend to transfer a return Ticket you must not have used the outward portion of that return Ticket, or if you intend to transfer a Season Ticket you must not have used it for any journeys already); and

5.1.3 the transfer is not a resale for more than the price paid for the Ticket by the person who first purchased it from a Train Company or a Licensed Retailer.
5.2 A Ticket which is validly transferred remains subject to all the conditions of travel originally applicable to it. |
